Spring gets me all Twitterpated

 

A Little Spring Romance

Done with colored pencils and a bit of Photoshop 5.8.2011 

When I think of Spring, I think of flowers and animals, and then 

eventually I think of the Disney movie Bambi, and I think of all the 

little twitterpated critters. :)

Definition according to the Urban Dictionary:

 Twitterpated (adj)

 1) to be completely enamored with someone/something.

 2) the flighty exciting feeling you get when you think about/see the object of your affection.

 3) the ever increasing acceleration of heartbeat and body temperature as a result of being engulfed amidst the exhilaration and joy of being/having a romantic entity in someone's life.

 

I'm trying to practice some more sketches before i start in my Sketchbook Project book.

I have heard that the pages aren't very watercolor friendly.. hmm... I've gotta think of a good, but strong way to rebind it. Also how to decorate the cover. I only have til Jan 2012! haha

What I'd like to be doing right now...

Sitting in a tree, on a swing, swaying in the cool breeze, knitting the longest scarf ever...

How did she even get up there? How does she change yarn colors? 

How will she get down? Maybe her new scarf will become a rope ladder.

I should have drawn a little table up there with lemonade & biscuits in case she gets hungry...

I wanted to draw something that provokes some funny questions. :) "Spring-Swing Knitting Bear" was created with pencil, colored pencil, a little marker, some chocolate for me, and a little background filling in photoshop.   :)  I hope it makes you smile. I am very patiently waiting for Spring to actually start feeling like Spring. Today was awfully cold.. hopefully it gets warmer soon. I want to start gardening at Ian's house.
